 I don't believe we are seeing this in release 8.0. I'll verify and let you =
 know if the problem persists for us.

 I am unable to reproduce this issue on recent HEAD system. Whenever mirror =
 looses one of components, or boots without one, it increments SyncID parame=
 ter (reported by `gmirror list`) on first subsequent write operation. If lo=
 st component reappears again, it has lower SyncID then the rest and forced =
 to be synchronized.
 
 Could you try reproduce bug on newer system? If so, provide some more detai=
 ls, especially how SyncID changes after each event and what messages GMIRRO=
 R prints.
